American Standard Circuits has announced that their company’s Quality Manager Mohammed Khan has completed IPC’s 6012 Application Specialist Training.

Commenting on this accomplishment, American Standard Circuits CEO Mr. Anaya Vardya said, “This is not only a great achievement for Mohammed but for the entire company as well. We feel that the time he spent during his training has made him a much more qualified quality manager. Mohammed will now be able to pass on this knowledge to the rest to the Quality team. Our goal at American Standard Circuits is to have the best trained Quality team in the business. We feel that the best way to do this is by investing in our people.”

“I really got something out of this training. Probably the most important thing is that now I get to train other people in my company which is what IPC designed this program to do. They call it “training the trainer” and that way more people can become proficient in the ins and outs of the workings of IPC 6012. It is a very effective program, I’m glad I took part in it. My plan is to always keep up with the latest Quality training that I can. It not only helps me but it certainly helps the company to achieve its goal of being the top Quality Assurance company in North America," Mr. Khan added.

I have always felt that automation has the potential to make a big difference in our PCB industry, especially domestically, where labor is at premium. For the past year, I have been looking for the story of how automation can and will make a significant difference in established PCB shops. I was fortunate enough to find that story in Multicircuits, located in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Only a few short years ago, this company was considered a “plain vanilla” PCB fabricator holding its own in our industry; now it has suddenly assumed a true leadership position in the industry in terms of capability, technology, operations, and profitability.

Dieter Bergman IPC Fellowship Award winner Curtis Grosskopf, a senior engineer at IBM, reflects on the evolution of IPC committees and the vital importance of their work, especially in collaboratively creating industry-wide standards to guide the work of professionals in every sector. This commitment to multidisciplinary cooperation is a mindset that should be fostered at the start of every career.

For perspective on those remarks, Nolan Johnson chats with David Schild, executive director of the Printed Circuit Board Association of America (PCBAA).
